| - Searching for BBQ, I wasn't expecting much since PHX isn't a BBQ town other than old, fat, retired hogs roasting in the desert. But I had to try Pork on a Fork, if only to say, "This little piggy is going to Pork on a Fork!"
The $11 Smokin' Sampler included pulled pork, smoked sausage, and chicken with choice of two sides. The tender pulled pork also came with a warm, soft dinner roll to make yummy mini sliders. The half smoked sausage link was just that - a smoked sausage link without much excitement for texture or exotic flavors. The chicken thigh was lightly basted in sweet BBQ sauce - not my preference, but the baste was light, so it was easily masked with the available BBQ dipping sauces (sweet, vinegar-based North Carolina, mustard, or hot). The delicious mac & cheese had oversized macaroni pasta and was slightly seasoned. The waffle fries were particularly yummy, even worthy of being a standalone snack.
WIFI and FREE fountain drink with Yelp check-in when ordering. Great friendly service, as I still got the freebie even though I checked in after ordering, and the staff came out from behind the counter twice to ask how we were doing.
The only downside is the indoor location in a boring business park, as I was expecting a small roadside shack with some picnic tables and the smell of smokey BBQ for miles around. But that could be a good thing because this fat little piggy wasn't slowly roasting in the Arizona sun while stuffing his face. OINK OINK.
